Athlon Midas TAC Gen 2 HD Rifle Scope 4-16x44 30mm FFP APRS14 MIL Black

The Athlon Midas TAC Gen 2 HD 4-16x44 rifle scope is built for shooters who refuse to compromise between optical quality and real-world value. This first focal plane scope delivers the versatility hunters, competitive shooters, and tactical enthusiasts need: a 4-16x magnification range that handles everything from close-range hunting to extended-distance precision work, paired with a crisp 44mm objective and a 30mm tube. The Midas TAC Gen 2 HD proves that you don't need to empty your bank account to own glass that performs.

At the core is an etched-glass APRS14 MIL reticle mounted in the first focal plane—meaning your holdovers and wind corrections remain true across the entire magnification range, a genuine advantage for dialing in long shots. The optical path relies on Athlon's advanced XPL multi-coated glass, engineered to maximize light transmission and deliver the clarity you need to place shots with confidence. The scope is argon-purged and sealed against the elements: waterproof, fog-proof, and shock-proof enough to survive the recoil and abuse of serious hunting or range work.

Control is straightforward and effective. The precision zero-stop elevation turret lets you return to zero without guesswork, while the capped windage adjustment protects against accidental shifts in the field. Side-focus parallax adjustment (10 yards to infinity) ensures a sharp sight picture at whatever distance your hunt demands. At 23.8 ounces, it's light enough not to burden your rifle, yet built from aircraft-grade aluminum for durability that lasts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What calibers and rifle platforms does this scope work with?

The Athlon Midas TAC Gen 2 HD is a 30mm tube scope that fits any rifle mounted with standard 30mm rings—bolt-actions, AR platforms, lever guns, and more. It's platform-agnostic; the limiting factors are your rings and your mount, not the scope itself.

Is this scope suitable for long-range hunting?

Yes. The 4-16x magnification range, first focal plane reticle with MIL holdovers, side-focus parallax adjustment, and 30 MIL of elevation adjustment make this scope capable at extended distances. Pair it with a rifle and ammunition suitable for your intended range, and you have the tools to hunt confidently at distance.

Can I use this scope in wet or harsh conditions?

Absolutely. The Midas TAC Gen 2 HD is argon-purged and fully sealed—waterproof, fog-proof, and shock-proof—designed to function reliably in rain, dust, temperature swings, and recoil.

What does "first focal plane" mean for the reticle?

In a first focal plane (FFP) scope, the reticle size scales with magnification: as you zoom in or out, the reticle grows or shrinks with it. This means your reticle's holdover marks and wind corrections remain true at any magnification setting—a significant advantage for field shooting where you might be changing power frequently.
